I went to Java because I KNEW that it kept the Mystery of Life, like I
had experienced in my LINK Threefold
Realization (1977). First I saw it confirmed at Borobudur, now overwhelmingly also at
Prambanan. In the previous pages I researched the mythological links with the
pre-patriarchal past, now I will reveal the Truth about Kala Herself. The picture on top
contains all elements to understand the Cosmos. Nowhere on earth people have understood it
like the Javanese did (after which they forgot it for many centuries!). I feel great joy
and gratitude, together with a bond for life with Java, the land and its people.

I couldn't believe my eyes. The galleries are all carved
with many, many Kala's

Coming closer.....

.......they are on top of the niches with Gods, under the
small stupa's

At least six of them can be clearly located

Here at least five can be
detected. Very similar to Borobudur!

What you see is a "monstrous" head, on top and
on both sides decorated with foliage, leaves and flowers. Her eyes are very big,
protruding. Her mouth is stretched to the sides, devouring everything that comes in its
way. However, the under jaw is "missing", so She cannot bite. Left and right two
beasts - Dragons - are sprouting out of Her head, bending downwards, and eventually
inwards, ending as two open mouths. In between these mouths a vertical structure can be
seen. It looks like a tree. At last at both ends there are two animals. They appear to be
two lions (the one on the left side is damaged)

The inside of a gallery

One of the entrances to the Vishnu-temple

How could it be otherwise: above the door a huge Kala Head

A second one

Look at the proportions: A very big Kala with a
meditating God beneath Her. The God seeking refuge in the Numenous

From the other side. Remarkable are the worshippers around
the Head

In my Threefold Realization - the deepest Realization
possible - first my entire Being was destroyed by Absolute Nothingness (Blackness).
Immediately after "I" dissolved into the Eternal Light e.g. the Divine. This
lasted all day. That same night I was confronted with an "Ocean of Horror", my
"descent into the "Underworld". In order to finally resurrect as a New Man
into A New World. This primordial Event was first described by Inanna, MotherGoddess of
Sumeria. Ever since it has captured the hearts and minds of people of all times: in the
West from the Hellenists to Goethe; in the East from the Tibetans to the
Javanese......And.... miraculously to the indigenous (Aztek, Maya) cultures of Mexico....

A third Kala

Stupa's representing the Cosmic Womb,
Kala's as Her visible manifestations with the Gods as Her Sons. Consciously or
unconsciously the Javanese Kings must have known about the Ultimate Truth.

The fact that Kala is on top of a
meditating Shiva means, that he acknowledges Her as His Origin. Even in current India he
is portrayed that way!

I immediately understood the implication of it.
Enlightenment (Buddhahood) is NOT the Ultimate, for it was born out of Darkness. The
latter is the Origin of all*. In ancient times this was called the Cosmic Womb. The Light
is Her "Son", Her first emanation. While She Herself is the Essence, Her
"Son" is a Cosmic Force, being born in Her Bottomless Depth. What Hinduism has
called "Creation". To be balanced by the other complementary Force: Destruction,
corresponding with my experience of the Underworld. The Cosmos thus being ruled by the
Womb and "Her" two Cosmic Forces: Creation (the Light, the Divine)
"moving" from the Centre to the periphery, and Destruction, "moving"
from the periphery to the Centre. It corresponds with the findings of science, which also
postulates a "Vacuum" as the Source of the universe, together with two major
Forces: the Light on the one hand and Gravity (Dark Matter) on the other (LINK "The Supreme Design")

* Curiously enough in Indonesia the oldest
ancestors were a.o. called "The clever grandmothers"
("nenek-moyang")

Isn't this INCREDIBLY beautiful?

In Hinduism the Original MotherGoddess is called Adi
Parashakti. She is the Creator of the Trimurti - Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. One of Her
manifestations is Parvati - "She from the Mountain"*. Both prove that Hindu's
acknowledge the pre-Vedic origin of the Mother. Apart from being the Origin of All - later
turned into "shakti" or energy aspect of the Gods - Her main Mission is to
destroy evil.

* Like Kybele, many ancient MotherGoddesses were "from
the mountain"

"When Mahishasura, the male, contains energy, it leads
to evil, the self-centered unguided might breeding ego, greed to acquire and possess more,
an ambition to conquer and rule, but when contained in a female frame, it is only the
guided power eradicating evil, perpetuating the good and virtuous"

Prof.
P.C.Jain

Referring to the old tale of Goddess Durga slaying the Bull Mahishasura

The bright sunshine didn't make taking pictures easy...

Meditating God with Kala and Stupa on top

These are only fifteen out of many tens

The miracle: all this is exactly reflected in Kala. Or,
more accurate, KalaMakara. The Head ("Kala") being the Cosmic Womb, while the
Dragons ("Makara") symbolize Her two Cosmic Forces of Creation and Destruction.
Her protruding eyes reflect Her Limitlessness e.g. Bottomlessness*. In Her Absolute
Emptiness She embraces Life - symbolized by the foliage - and Death - Her wide mouth.
However, these aspects are not active, emphasizing Her Absolute Emptiness. That's why She
doesn't bite. The active functions are being done by Her "masculine" parts: the
two Makara's. In the universe these two Forces constitute a dynamic balance. This balance
- always fluctuating! - maintains Mother's web of life, symbolized by the tree (of life)
between the two mouths of the Dragons. Finally, as a memory of earliest times - in which
Kala was depicted as the "Lady and Her Beasts" - to lions (Shiva was also
portrayed as a lion) complement the scene. Durga, the Hindu successor to the Original
Mother, has a statue in the cella of the Shiva temple.... Moved by tears, a shudder went
through me.

* I have a photo of myself during the ecstasy of
Emptiness which confirms it

It is astonishing how the Kala's - both at Borobudur and
Prambanan, yes, throughout entire Java - have remained "unnoticed". The
consequence: they have never been integrated in the
historical/mythological/spiritual/religious/cultural deliberations about Java. Omitting a
vital part is not without effects. It means that all results until now in the field of
Javanism are inadequate at best or worse - leading to wrong conclusions. On the other
hand: re-introducing vital omissions will inevitably lead to a shift in paradigm. To the
world this will be a revelation. For the trouble mankind is in cannot be overcome without
a new start in spirituality. The old beliefs simply are not able to give answer to our
most urgent questions. I feel great gratitude for having the opportunity to putting Java
in the centre of this New Era. The only question: how will the Javanese people respond?
For they have been living with their past - without knowing the true meaning of Kala - for
many centuries. My hope is the many "mystic" (kebatinan) groups, that are
searching for the Origin of their culture, beyond all established (Hindu, Buddhist, Islam,
Christianity) religion

Again my question to those who maintain that Kala is the
"God of Time". Why all these Gods (like the Buddha'sa at Borobudur) have a Kala
on top of their heads? Isn't timelessness (and limitlessness) the former's very Essence?
Their Being is beyond time. Hence, being guarded by the "God of Time" is
entirely inappropriate. On the other hand, the concept of "Sons of the Mother"
is highly realistic. Look at these pictures with an unprejudiced eye. The Numinosity of
the Kala's is undeniable. Light is born out of Darkness.....
